Mark 1:14-15
Automated transcript. Not reviewed for accuracy.

Now, after John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee proclaiming the gospel of God and saying, the time is fulfilled and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent and believe in the gospel. This is the word of the Lord. Well, hey, good morning on this incredible Sunday at, uh, sea Chains Church here in La Jolla. Great to have you. And look, don't be afraid to double dip today. You wanna roll up with me? As soon as this service is over, I am jumping in the 2002 Toyota Tacoma best truck ever made.

And I'm heading up to Claremont where that truck belongs. It's got friends up there and we are gonna roll in. I used to spend a lot of time up there when I was a kid and went to high school up there. And, uh, I'm gonna be preaching up there. Pastor Joe is gonna preach here and finish up this sermon series, moving in two weeks to a brand new sermon series. Gonna be speaking on the life of Elijah. So we're gonna get into the prophet, uh, Elijah's life in two weeks.

Uh, but before then, if you have your Bibles open up to Mark one 14 and 15, seeing a season change here, you're seeing a change in season, easy to miss. Uh, something negative happens and Jesus gives a somewhat powerful, uh, comment that has, uh, um, that's real positive. And you wouldn't expect that his, uh, go to verse 14. I'll just read it actually. Now. After John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee. That's where he did about 80% of his miracles, proclaiming the Gospel of God.

That's the gospel of repentance, of salvation and saying, the time is fulfilled, circle fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand, circle at hand, repent and believe in the gospel. What's the season change? Well, remember, Jesus had a precursor. It was his cousin, uh, John the Baptist, who was sent in advance to him or to the people to announce his coming. Uh, that season is, has ended with the arrest of John. The Baptist season's gonna definitely end when he head is cut off not too long afterwards, but Jesus is now on the scene.

I think we see a key thing here. One, something negative happens and you think, oh, I'm going into a bad season in my life. Something bad's happened to me, and all of a sudden we don't realize that even through bad things in our life, sometimes God is releasing his power. God is releasing his kingdom. God is releasing his kairos moment where the kingdom of God is now at hand in a different way than it has been previously.

And that's key. We can get existential if you want and be like, well, God's omnipresent. He's everywhere all at once. It's no different. His presence is, is at this time is the same as at that time. But scripture doesn't show that. Scripture shows that while he's omnipresent his touch, his drawing near is precipitated sometimes by prayer, sometimes by global events, sometimes by something happening in our life. Uh, the k Chronos in our life, we talked about that.

This is a two week sermon series on Chronos and Kairos Chronos is that watch time, that time on your phone that you're following. But in the midst of that, every so often a season changes. It's either time to plant as this is a Ecclesiastes three, which is the parallel passage from last week. There's a time to plant, there's a sign to, so there's a time to water and there's a time to harvest, right? What Jesus is saying is this is a time when he's coming, is a time of harvest.

Something negative happens. Do not underestimate, do not miss Jesus when something bad happens in your life. Now, we all run to Jesus, right when something bad happens, but oftentimes we are looking for the salvific moment in our lives. God saved me from this as opposed to the power releasing moment where he comes and he says, the kingdom of God is at hand. That's a powerful statement, right? Where's the kingdom of God? It's in heaven.

It's God's kingdom. It is God's kingdom and it is being brought to earth. What is the favorite prayer? You know, our father who art in heaven, that the, the Lord's Prayer, it says, your kingdom come, your will be done. Our job, our desire is to make our life the k chronos of our life look more like the time that's happening in heaven. And so we see a season change happening, and maybe you are in a season change. That season change happens when the time was fulfilled.

Go to verse 15 and he said, the time is fulfilled. That's what I think of a mason jar right now. I'm, uh, I do a lot of canning. I just learned how to can meat. I know scary, right? Like I didn't know. You just take a raw piece of chicken, you put it in there, you turn it out, you don't put any water or anything in it. You put it in the, in the pressure cooker, it just, all the juices come out and you just cook it. You have to do it right, but nonetheless, it just ends up having you have meat.

I don't think I'm gonna do it 'cause I don't think I can eat like boiled meat out of a can. But think of a mason jar. I have a lot of mason jars. I do a lot of canning. And then think of the sand in another hand, and you're starting to pour sand into this mason jar. Now, when you think of multiple mason jars, one in your life says like where you're living. Uh, one says your job, there's all these different elements of your life and God is pouring sand into all of them at different rates at different times.

And some are coming to a season of fulfillment. Fulfillment is when God finishes the season you're in. Everything has been fulfilled, everything has been done. People in here that just got married, I saw 'em, they're here, friends of mine, we got a lot of people getting married in this church and they dated and, and they met and they, I, you know, they were engaged and God was just filling that season. And then it was done, topped it off.

The season was fulfilled. They harvested a marriage. And now God has another. Your marriage, he's got another time and a season for the first part of your marriage, whatever it is, he's fulfilling. That's what's happening here. God is in the mi midst of that. And we tend to undervalue or, or yeah, undervalue the filling times, right? The time has been fulfilled because we all want the moment. We all want the Everest moment.

But you can't live one thing about Everest, if you're a climber, you can't live at the top of Everest. Everyone wants to live in the Everest ev, top of Everest. You know what they call that? The name for it. Top of Everest called the Death Zone. Why? Because you can't live there because life happens at Base. Camp Chronos, as we talked about last week, is making sure your base camp is solid, making sure you're doing the things in your base camp that matter.

So when the harvest comes, you are ready. When the kingdom of God draws near you are ready. Key text today, this is a, a topical sermon. I rarely do these, do about two a year. Usually we're just plowing through scripture in different portions of scripture, different ies of scripture. Mark one 15, the time, that time right there, the word in, uh, if you go to mark one 15, go to verse 15, the time that's kairos. That means that this is a, this is a moment of harvest.

This is a moment where God is drawn near, where something is happening in that moment. While I said K Chronos is important, there are kairos moments of your life. There are moments when you'll leave high school and now you're in college. You got a different season, it's a different time. There's these moments where the seasons change and where God is near. And so we don't want to miss those moments. There's so easy to miss.

So there's, um, keyword today is, you'll see a keyword is opportunity. I want you to put another one next to it on your notes. If you're online, you can check those out. Uh, you can download 'em from the homepage, sea change church.org opportunity. And I want you to put next to opportunity choice because every opportunity has a choice attached to it. Will you seize the opportunity? Will you as uh, Robin Williams said, right dead poet society, Carpe carpe diem, seize the, seize the moments.

And so will we do that. Now, I want to say, I believe you can actually miss moments, but before you start going, oh, I've missed my moment, I miss, I should have done that. Before you get into that, realize that you serve a God of grace that says in Romans 8 38, he can take all things and make them work together for good, for those that love God. And they're called according to a purpose. He can redeem the years, the locust of eaten away.

Even if you missed it, he can bring it back. He can redo it. I say this all the time, but it's one of my favorite things to say, so I'm gonna say it again. We give more credit to Google Maps to redirect us in our life and get us to our destination than we give to God. We think God is set in one way. He can't take you, take you another way. God can reroute you, get you back on track any way he wants and get you to that destination.

With that said, let's try not to miss those moments. You miss that moment. It's a bummer. And it has to do with that song. I was, I was, I brought, I came up for earlier that the reason God wants you on track is not so you can go kick butt for the kingdom and he can't get it done without you. It's 'cause he wants to hang out with you while he's doing it. The biggest moment you're gonna miss is the walk with Jesus on the way.

The biggest moment you're gonna miss is when he does something radical, brings a moment of healing, of salvation as somebody and you're off doing something else and you missed it. He's still gonna get it done. It's not dependent upon you, but you're gonna miss it. And I said this last week, it's like going to a birthday party mad, right? You ever gonna a birthday party mad or you go to Christmas? You got, you got the one relative.

Maybe you're that relative. You can't, can't show up to a big event, family event without getting mad, right? You gotta take the stage. Don't say who it is. I don't, don't say who it is. You show up. You were there, but you missed it, right? You missed it. God doesn't want you to miss it. And we miss it all the time if we're left to our own devices, pun intended, if we're left doing all these other things. So three, three quick points, because I gotta drive to Claremont today.

I'm gonna get 'em quick, I don't worry. Kairos is when God is nearest, Kairos moments are easily missed. Kairos begs a response. Go back to verse 15 and saying, the time is fulfilled. The kingdom of God is at hand. He then send, repent and believe in the gospel. This is what he was telling them. This was what the kairos moment was about. Your kairos moments are about something. Now, the majority of time when you see this word kairos used in the scripture, it's about salvation.

That's god's, that's his target, right? It's salvation, it's the kingdom. Kairos talks about that word is used with, with Jesus coming back. A lot of people feel we're in the end times right now, and there's some debates to be had about that. But whether we're in the end times or not, there's always moments where we can seize a a, even if it's a minor kairos moment in the midst of your day. I believe that there's kairos moments constantly.

Now, the Bible is regularly speaking about the giant salvific ones. Jesus coming back, the blowing of the trumpets, the seventh trumpet, like all these things in the chronos, in the kairos. But in the midst of your k Chronos, there's a kairos, I was getting off at Miramar Thursday waiting, and there was a guy there and he was selling roses, right? And he is got the roses, he's there. And I don't know where he is from, didn't look like he was from, you know, in, from San Diego.

And I didn't need any roses. Uh, we, I had a bunch of stuff going on. I didn't need any roses. And I was carrying cash. I don't know if anybody carries cash anymore. I don't carry cash anymore. But it happened. Somebody had given me some cash and it was a fair amount of cash to pay for something. And I just felt like the Lord was like, buy some roses, buy three roses and give the roses. So I call the guy over, it's a long light and uh, call him over.

I give him, and the Lord says, now give him all the money. And I'm like, bro, that's not three rows money, bro. I'm not gonna say what it was. But it wasn't three rows money. Maybe it is in this economy. My daughter always says, loves saying that in this economy. Um, so I just, I just got, it was in the ashtray, that's old school who put money in the ashtray bills because I, I don't think I've carried a bill for, I don't remember the last time.

So I took it, gave it, gave it to him. I was actually happy to give it to him. He basically worshiped in front of me, not me. He was like, oh God, thank you, God. He kissed it, he raised his hand, he almost danced. And I was like, wow, that was awesome. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. That was worth more than the roses. You couldn't have paid for that. And I thought, wow. And he said to God, he said to God, to God, I saw, you know, I don't know what God he was praying to.

I didn't meet him. You know, I don't know the man, but I was like, wow, kairos. It was easy. It was just easy. It was something I didn't want to do. But it was easy in that moment. And you have those moments. Every day, single day, there's an opportunity. There's a choice where God's gonna do something. And, and, and they're not always easy. It is an opportune time. It is God's. Now, lemme tell you what Chronos is. K Chronos is when Jesus says, we're walking from Jerusalem on up to Galilee, which is happening here.

It's gonna take you about, I dunno, maybe you can do it in three and a half, but it's probably gonna be about seven. Jesus pays probably five. Uh, and Chronos, as you're just cruising with Jesus. Some of you're in that moment. You're like, oh Jesus, we're going to Galilee again. We're going through Samaria like the whole thing. Kairos is along the way when Jesus finds a blind beggar and he's like, stop, stop in this moment.

I need you in this moment. I, I believe that if we do the Chronos walking well that hard, walking through the, through the, I dunno if you've been to Israel, like there's some hard walking in Israel, some hard walking dirt and rocks and there's some beautiful areas as well. But it's, it's, it's kind of like borrego, right? You're doing that hard walking. If you do that well, and then you take those other moments, those those moments where Jesus stops.

And it's usually for people on occasion, he'll curse a fig tree, but it's usually for people. He's stopping for people. That's the target people is are as my mom says, I said, mom, what's your hobby? You need some hobby. She goes, people are my hobby. People are, are the thing that we care about. People are our target. And so Jesus does that in that moment. He pivots in a moment. Those are the pivot. It's a now moment where God is saying, now you have an opportunity.

There's an opportunity in your marriage. There's an opportunity in your job, there's an opportunity with your neighbor. There's an opportunity. Now, do you want to step into this? The more you step into those, the more you'll get. 'cause who has been blessed with little will be given more. As a church, we wanna step into opportunities. As a church, we wanna, we want to do things. If God opens a, the, a kingdom opportunity for us, we want to step into it.

Even if we might fail. Some of us, we don't step, we don't step into opportunities for a few reasons. One, it's apathy. Uh, two, because our, maybe our hearts are hard. Maybe another reason might just not be on our timing. These reasons we don't step in or fear failure. Swing the bat. Don't be afraid to fail. If you begin to listen, if you begin to step into these moments, these choice moments, right? We'll see as we come in for a landing here in a minute, two people in the scripture that had a choice.

The more you step into 'em, the more your ears will, will hear it. The more you step in, the more your ears will hear it. I listen to a lot of eighties music, way too much. That's pretty much all I listen that and worship. It's worship. In eighties, two great places to land, right? I got serious radio. I paid the 4 99 for the serious radio in my mom, in my wife's car, not my, my car. 'cause of the 2002, doesn't that can't get serious radio.

But nonetheless, and I hit the button for like a quarter of a second. Remember that game show, they like give you one note and I hit the note because I was gonna another station. I was like, oh, that's taken on me by aha. And I was like, there's no way it was taken on me by aha. There's no way I'm gonna get that. And I went back and it was that like three times that happened this week where it was like this random song.

I only heard one note and I was like, wow, why? Because I spend a lot of time listening to it. Probably too much. Same thing with God. If take that opportunity, buy those roses, forgive that neighbor, do whatever. When you do it, he's gonna talk more. You're gonna start hearing it all the time. And you're, it says, my sheep will know my voice and you will know his voice more and more. This is a biblical pattern that we see that God is near.

You'll see a biblical pattern here. Jesus arrives, not late, not early, but in the fullness of time, Galatians four, four. But in the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his son, born of woman born under the law. So that's the first point, is God draws near in these moments. I wanna, I wanna encourage you that God is near, I believe God, there is a season right now for our church and within your lives that there's a season right now where God is moving in generations.

He's moving with Gen Z. Um, he's moving with other generations that are happening. I see God's movement. He's moving politically. He's moving through peoples. Be aware of what happened. It is a moment that is near. Next one is kairos. Moments are easily missed. Lemme read Luke 1944. You did not recognize the time, the kairos of God coming to you. You did not recognize the time. This is when Jesus, this is a salvific one, but the disciples all, were always missing Jesus, right?

Walks out on water, on the storm, don't recognize who he is. Multiple times He, you know, the road to a Emmaus, their two disciples are walking with him. We, we spoke about him over the Easter season over that, uh, a road to a Emmaus passage. They didn't recognize him until the breaking of the bread. They just didn't recognize him for one reason or another. You know, the, the, the, the scary part is to think I'm gonna miss it.

The great part is in almost in every one of those stories, every one of 'em that I can think of, they end up recognizing him. Why? Because he goes, Hey, it's me. Hey, by the way, it's me. Before you start worrying that you're going to miss the moment, realize that we have a God of grace who's going to make himself known to you. He's going to chase you down. Romans five, eight is a great passage. While you were still a sinner, while we were yet sinners, what did Christ go and do for us?

Died for us. While you weren't looking for him, while you didn't care about him, he was pursuing you, he was chasing you down. So in the midst of that, understand that we have a pursuing God and we can still miss some moments. May I ask right now, and you're in your, in your in your personal life. What's the moment? There's a moment going on in your personal life right now. There's a moment. You know it, there's a moment.

What's God doing in your relationships? In individual relationships? Are you just focused on, oh, I'm upset with this person. Oh, this person, I'm happy with that person. Oh, this person, uh, whatever. But you're unaware of what God's doing. You see, there's a backstory to every story, and we have to get tuned into the backstory to understand, you know, looking at what's happening in the world right now. You can have an opinion one way or another, but beyond that opinion, you can sacrifice your opinions because a lot of your opinions are wrong.

And mine too, right? Don't be married to your opinions. Be married to the married, to the heart of God and asking God, this thing in the world really ticks me off. God, right now, what are you doing? What's your heart for this? What's your heart for the poor? We miss moments when we're not looking for the backstory. When we're not getting an interview with the author. You see, God, when it comes to the book that he has written in the book, that he is writing in history right now.

He is the author and he has given you the ability to have an inter a sit down with the author, with everything that's happening in your life, to sit down with and say, God, show me what's on your heart. What do you want me to do? What moves you? God? What moves you? What do you want in my life? They're easily missed. And how do we not miss them? We become attuned. It's pretty easy. You just begin to look. And then the second thing is the hardest one, obedience.

You can write that one too if you want. Maybe you don't want to obedience doing what Jesus says to do when he asks you to do it. He's so patient. How patient is he? Oh my goodness. I got, I got stuff. He got 20 years, he's waiting on it. You know what I mean? But in the fullness of time, he's gonna fill it up. And there's certain times he comes and he corrects and he disciplines. He corrects nations, he disciplines and judges nations still.

He judges individuals. He judges churches see that in revelation that he's judging in the fullness of time. When he says that he, he calls us to not miss those moments. Put just one quote and then we're moving on to the third point. Told you, I'd get you there. People focus on the next things. People who are focused on the next things often miss out on the now thing. God's telling you, great, you got prophecy. We all love prophecy, right? We all love prophecy.

I rarely have gone to a prophecy, A church that's into prophecy or go prophecy online. Obviously prophecy's kind of forthtelling, but there's not really like a lot of interest in the now telling the place that you're stuck right now. I just wanna tell you about like, God, what do you have to say about that place? What do you have to say about this k Chronos place in my life? Because we're always looking for that next thing.

What's the now thing in your life? Did you miss him this morning? Did you miss him this week? He's still there. He's still waiting. But what's the now thing? You do the now thing. Well, your purpose will come down. It'll, it'll, it'll, it'll chase you down and lay at your feet. It will lay at your feet. This whole, like, we gotta go look for our purpose and what our, what our thing is and where God's taking us. Just be. If you're just faithful and obedient, obedient, I would even say I'm gonna, I'm gonna be definitive.

And I'm rarely definitive. If you never think about the next thing, and you only thought about the now thing with Jesus, God, I'm gonna live in this moment and live with the best I can 'cause it's all I have. You will walk directly into your purpose. You won't miss it. It'd be impossible to miss it because you're just following Jesus. You're just Jesus, I'm just with you. I'm like, I'm sorry Jesus. I know that you know, and he might wanna tell you about the future.

He does that. He gives us prophecy. I'm, I don't wanna throw the baby out with the bath water. I'm just saying we don't focus enough on the now. We don't focus enough on the base camp. The you do well at the base camp, you're gonna get to Everest. You'll wake up one morning and be like, whoa, where'd these Tibetan flags come from? You're gonna be there. Number three, Kairos begs, kairos begs a response. Mark one 15, go to verse 15 and saying, time is fulfilled and the kingdom of God is at hand.

Repent and believe in the gospel. So there's a, there's a, there's a call right there. The times have changed because John the Baptist has gone. The time has been fulfilled and the kingdom of God is at hand. Now, go do something. What I want you to do, repent. Repent and believe. Repent and believe. That's powerful. Repentance is something we need to regularly do every single day. Every single day. Just come for the Lord.

God, if I did anything to offend you, show me what it is. God, I repent. Repent to your sins. If you have, you know, we, we live in a world that doesn't believe in sin. They don't believe in forgiveness either. If you do something wrong that goes against the social morays, there's no way back. You just get sent to the sidelines. There's no forgiveness. The repentance call to a forgiveness that we see. He says, repent and believe.

I put kairos always comes with a choice. The opportunity comes to the choice. You don't drift into obedience. You decide yourself into obedience. You're not gonna drift your, you're not just gonna one day wake up and just be, be in obedient. Obedience is hard. Obedience is like, okay, I'm gonna stop doing this thing. I'm going to give that thing that I don't want to give. The interesting thing is you'll see in the scripture, obedience leads to freedom.

And David ends up saying, as he's talking in the Psalms, he says something really weird. He says, I Lord, I love your law. Who loves the law? Like when you're driving, you're like, ah, 55. Awesome. I love that. Awesome, awesome. It's because you realize when you start being obedient, he's calling you to obedience. Not just to some arbitrary, you know, pejorative thing in your life. Oh, stop doing that. I'm gonna smack you with a stick.

He's like, I love you so much. Lemme just show you. No, no, this is, you're going the wrong. No, you're going the wrong direction. I want to bring you home. I have this for you. I want to bring you here. You're, you're, you're, I'm having to hesitate on some of these kairos moments. I want to bring in your life because you're not getting in line and you're missing it. You have some people that are waiting for the moment and God's like, I'm waiting on you.

I'm not gonna lie. There are moments of obedience. I've had a couple times where God has brought tests in my life and that I've had huge breakthroughs after a test. Huge breakthroughs. God is saying, being obedient. It's like we want God's timing. We want the harvest, we want the kairos, but we want, we don't want to do anything when he asks us to do it. That's a hard word. Kairos comes with a choice. Two examples. We're done.

First, you have this woman in Luke chapter eight that has this, this issue, you know, this issue o of you know, of, of blood in, in Luke chapter eight. And it's interesting because she's there and there's this crowd in Luke chapter eight, and they're all pushing around. And she's been sick for years, gone to every doctor. She's done it all. She's that a moment where like she's just, enough is enough. And she sees Jesus. You can imagine Jesus, Jesus has been healing people at this time, and there's all these people around him and they're all pushing.

And she's like, if I can just touch him, if I can just get to him and just touch him, I know I'm just, I believe enough. If I can just touch him, he doesn't need to talk to me. He doesn't even know, no, I'm there. I'm just gonna slip in, touch him and bounce and hope that I get healed. So she does it. She's making her way. Imagine everyone around her and she's making her way in. She's been sick for years. I dunno how much, how much energy has, has what she's like.

And all of a sudden she makes it to Jesus and she touches him. And Jesus stops. He says, who touched me? They're like, pardon, who touched you? There's like a thousand people are pushing in on you. He is just, Jesus just getting crushed. He says, somebody touched me because power went out from me. Power kingdom power went out from me. And she's just like, now this, you don't go touch a rabbi. You get stoned like as a woman.

You, you cannot, you can't do that back in the day you could, you could be killed. She's desperate touches him. And she raises her hand and she says, it was me. The story goes on. I'll let you read the rest of chapter eight. Jesus sends her on her way, but he sends her on her way different because she was healed. 'cause power went out because she took her moment and she touched Jesus. What does it mean for you to touch Jesus? What does it mean?

Does it mean? I don't know. Does it mean reading the Bible, going on a retreat? I don't know what it, what it, you know what it means? What would it look like for you to just to pursue him, to press, pass all the stuff in your life, swim through all the people, all the stuff, risk everything to touch Jesus. And then there's this other guy, and he's a rich young ruler, super rich. And he walks up to Jesus and he says, Jesus, I wanna follow you.

Tell him I'll do anything. What does it mean to follow you? I'll do, I'll do anything. I'll do anything. He says, oh, awesome. I love that attitude that just warms my heart. Go, take all your money and give it away. Give it to the poor, then come follow me. Exactly. And it said he went away sad because he was really wealthy. Have you ever walked away sad? That's rough. I mean, you just couldn't do it. On one hand, you got this one woman with a choice.

I guess she, you know, here's the thing. She's been in suffering. He's been an opulence. And I guess one sharpens the flint a little sharper than the other. 'cause it's easier for camel to go through the eye of the needle, Jesus says, than for someone who's super wealthy to enter into the kingdom of heaven. That's the choice. And so here's the practical takeaway. This is the end of the message. We're gonna call Chris up in a second.

Who do you want to be today? Who do you want to be? There was a song, 80 song, a band called Oingo Boingo. And the song was this. I remember as a kid, he used to skate to it. Who do you want to be today? Who do you want to be? That's the question. This week you are gonna have an opportunity. And I, I'm praying, I prayed this week for you that God would give you opportunities to have kairos moments, to do kairos things, to do kingdom.

Bringing things to repent and believe, to do the things that Christ has called us to, right? And to either in those moments that you will recognize this, I'm either gonna act like that with the passion that woman acted with, or I'm gonna be the rich running ruler today. And when you have that, you're gonna have a choice. This week, multiple times, I'm praying that God just blesses you with opportunity. After opportunity after opportunity.

And each time you will be aware and it'll go into your brain. You'll think, who do I want to be today? Do I want to be someone who risk it all to touch Jesus that I might have that kingdom moment? Or do I want what I want and I'm willing to be sad to get it? That's our choice. That's our takeaway. Chris, could you come forward? Bless you guys. Maybe I'll see you up in Claremont in this moment. Joe's gonna take it from here.

Let's stand if we would, and Chris is gonna leave, I pray this would be a moment for you in this Kairos moment. Joe will be up here in just a second as the band plays. Bless you guys. Is it a what? Tell me what moves here. I, Uh, if the prayer team is here, we'd love the prayer team to come up. Um, I know Pastor Adam won't mind me saying this, but he preached about kairos moments as, as we're chronologically going throughout time, there's these certain moments, these opportune moments that God wants us to step into, that Jesus has made available for us.

And there might be somebody here that is not entered into a kairos moment, in a salvific way with the Lord Jesus who stepped into the world into this time and lived a perfect life in your place where you failed and then died on a cross where God's wrath was poured on him, not on you. If you have faith. And then he resurrected. I'm not asking for hands raised, but if there are people here that have not stepped into God's kairos moment that Jesus purchased for you, step in and your week will be forever changed.

And for you who have stepped in to walk with Jesus, um, there's a prayer team up here and we had a window service. It was really powerful. And there was this time of prayer and Harry was up there and Brenda and I was sitting in the back. I was having a good moment and God's and uh, passed around, was like, who wants a double portion? I'm like, I'm good. I'm good. I ended up going up and Pastor Harry prayed for me. And I felt the love of God through him and God spoke through him.

And there's some of you that have never come up for prayer. I believe God wants you to come up for prayer and ask him to move in your soul. So do you have breakthroughs? So this next week, you're more aware of the kairos moments. Father God, you have chosen good works
